Song to the Siren

Song to the Siren - Tim Buckley

Written by：Larry Beckett/Tim Buckley

Long afloat on shipless oceans

I did all my best to smile

'Til your singing eyes and fingers

Drew me loving to your isle

And you sang sail to me sail to me let me enfold you

Here I am here I am waiting to hold you

Did I dream you dreamed about me

Were you hare when I was fox

Now my foolish boat is leaning

Broken lovelorn on your rocks

For you sing touch me not touch me not come back tomorrow

Oh my heart oh my heart shies from the sorrow

I am puzzled as the newborn child

I am riddled at the tide

Should I stand amid the breakers

Or should I lie with death my bride

Hear me sing swim to me swim to me let me enfold you

Here I am here I am

Waiting to hold you
